@DaughterOfMars True that. I did my own research and now know what the fediverse is about and wish I didn’t jus blindly follow people. I could have joined an instance of what I liked. Oh well lesson learned. There needs to be a faq about the fediverse before people just come.
@DaughterOfMars That’s why you do your research and create an account on a successful instance so you don’t have that problem. I have a lemmy account and mastodon. I have lemmy because of the blackout but didn’t know what I was doing. I note know how to use lemmy and mastodon from the user side of things. Lemmy for my subs and general looking at the sub home page and communities. Mastodon to chitchat and everything else
@AllonzeeLV I deleted my account and left my sub to a mod I trusted. He opened it backup but the feedback he was getting from the Redditors told him to shut it back down lol
@Dusty @NotBadAndYou Twitter and Reddit are a dumpster fire. Only difference is that Twitter knows already and Reddit is slowly finding out!
@joeygibson @IncidentalIncidence u/spez literally looks like he could lick Elon’s boots
@IncidentalIncidence u/spez doubling again basically. Glad I left that dumpster fire and it sucks what will come next !
@MadCybertist @SonNeedGym @hydra @Hedup Yep. They might seem like there talking but you will be talking to yourself. They have to federate to be able to talk and see all there comments and post. you might see some stuff now cause its cached but once they reboot or whatever you won’t see anything
@Hedup Yep. They defederated yesterday. https://beehaw.org/post/567170
@Hedup Try https://lemmy.world/instances
e: Also by region or whatever you want https://joinfediverse.wiki/Instances
@z2k_ Holy crap that’s amazing. I might need to pull my iPhone out of the drawer
@Pulptastic @lostwonder I don’t know why people are holding on. If u/spez can do what he is doing now who says he won’t do it again? Let’s say he let’s third-party apps back. It’s a matter of time when he shuts it down, this time for good!
e: Just delete your account
